Yes I made it !!! This is my first street food recipe that am publishing today in Prema’s culinary. Pav bhaji is a fast food dish that has gone to gain fame the world over. Pav Bhaji literally means bread and vegetables. The vegetables are cooked and mashed then spiced with a special pav bhaji masala and generally topped with generous quantities of butter and served with this pav which is used to mop up the mashed vegetables.

I’ve thought of making my own paav bhaji masala many times but somehow i changed my mind and used the MDH Pav Bhaji Masala to make this quickly. I have made thisPav Buns yesterday and couldn’t wait to try it with Pav bhaji,so i made it and clicked it.It is too easy recipe and taste awesome.I had Pav bhaji first time in chennai with my co sister who is the great lover of chat Items. Once i tasted it and started loving it. Now also if i visit kailash Prabath i will try Pav Bhaji.But having the pav bhaji with home made pav buns is really excellent.I have tried this recipes from here with slight modification.

The vegetables that are usually added to pav bhaji are cauliflower, potatoes, carrots, peas, capsicum and french beans etc… but i used only potato and green peas.You can add your favourite veggie for variation.Just follow my step by step photo recipe and learn how to make this easy Pav Bhaji at home and serve as dinner special dish.

How to make Pav Bhaji:Chop the 2 onions and reserve the one chopped onion for garnishing,tomatoes,chilly and make it ready.

Boil the Vegetables and mash it ,make it ready.Heat oil in a kadai and add in cumin seeds,let it to splutter.Now add the ginger garlic paste saute it for a while and then add the onion and tomatoes fry it ,till it becomes soft and mushy.

Once done add in the turmeric powder,chilly powder,pav bahji masala powder,garam masala and salt.Add water otherwise the masala started to burn. Add in the mashed vegetables and mix well.

Add the chopped capsicum and mix well with masala,let it cook for while.Once done,transfer it into the serving plate.

My Notes:

You can add vegetables like boiled potato,carrot,cauliflower,beans and also paneer ,capsicum for variation.

Mash the vegetables and then add it into the kadai or if you have the mashing tool you can do it directly while frying it.

Adjust the spice powders according to your taste.

Adding butter is optional,if you want rich gravy you can add it.

Butter Pav:

Divide the pav buns into two halves and keep aside. Heat some butter and fry the pav buns for a minute. Serve the pavs hot with the bhaji.

The Pav Buns in the pics are homemade and you can find the recipe here.Nothing better than some homemade bhaji with homemade pav.
